Job Openings in the Upstate

When the federal job report for June was released last week, the news was not good. Unemployment rose to 9.2 percent. The rate in South Carolina is even higher, although in the Upstate the rate it is thought to be below that. But percentages and rates are of little interest to the jobless. They want work. To that end, here is a list of resources available for job-seekers. In most cases you’ll have to click through and customize your search geographically or by keyword.

Here they are:

The state’s Department of Employment site.

Sciway.net allows searches by city or publication.

A list of current openings from Godshall Staffing, an employment agency in Greenville.

The Craig’s List Greenville page.

Indeed which allows searches by date, keyword, location or a combination of all three.

Monster which allows job-seekers to get e-mail updates on jobs that may be suitable for them.
